Got in pretty late, easy trip to the hostel, quite a lot of confusion getting new currency and then trying to break the rediculously large bills coming out of the atm.... hard to take out more then 1000 units of currency, even when you know it's only $40.... we went on a walk with our hostel roommates, college boys from Stuttgart, they promised to show us a fairly cool restaurant, they were totally lost too though.... we stopped at a place for really delicious food mmm. we were told dumplings and pork were the specialties, and they were.... mmm.... dumplings were breadish, and sliced as such, with lots of gravy and greasy-good meat. Served with Budwiser! don't gasp at the sacriledge, it was real Czech Budvar, not american water-berr, and i had the Budvar Dark... almost black, a little molassesy and absolutely great. the german Weissbier was good with a lot of things, but this meal called for thicker stuff. Fun wander past tinker-bell palace and through Wenceslas Square (whores and western commercialism) back to the hostel and a good night.

And what about Charles bridge? Did you visit it? Charles Bridge is a treasure, a great beauty. The last time I visited Prague I stayed at the hotel at the western edge of the bridge. I liked it best early on a drizzly morning with few people around.
